Jack Rabbit Fever on the Pahria

The Kadizzles had a nice hike today up to Castle Rock on the Pahria River. The Commander has been suffering from Jack Rabbit Fever. The condition causes a hiker to want to take off in any direction at high speed without regard to where they are going. To access the Castle Rock we had to go up a very steep rocky incline that was our second this year. Once up on top the terrain was totally unmarked, and we took a lot of GPS points. When it was time to leave The Commander thought she found a short way out. Lord Kadizzle tried to explain that if there was a short way out, there would be a short way in, and people would know about it. As usual she took of without regard to the possibility of getting stuck where were could not get out. Luckily Lord Kadizzle talked some sense into her, and we returned the way we came in. If we get pictures downloaded tonight they will be posted tomorrow. The plan for tomorrow is to drop down into the Pahria canyon on an old Indian trail. Supposedly it is the only way you can get in or out except at the ends of the 35 mile hike.
